I think backwards compatibility is a cop-out. You have to take a console for its time, and with its own titles. Because, for example, as cool as the Wii's backward compatibility is, we buy it for Wii games, not so we can play games that we played to death years ago, and that might have nostalgic value but aren't as awesome as when we owned the earlier system.For me, Genesis. But for its time, the original NES was just a social revolution. I wouldn't argue for the Genesis being the best ever for its time, it just happened to be my favorite.
Otherwise, XBox 360. The games are newer, better, deeper, better graphically, etc. A ton of great games with mroe to come, and a wealth of options that weren't available in earlier console generations. For its time, probably not (yet, at least), or maybe when you chalk in nostalgia it doesn't win, but objectively speaking you'd have to say one of the current systems is the "best". If a Martian were looking down on every console, for example, the NES and such (for all its glory) wouldn't even compare.

As a system? The Wii, even though the 3rd party developers can't get their act together on actually making working games for the system. It is clearly the best and most innovative system, and in addition, it makes gamers get off their lasy @$$3$. 😛
I still dont see how anyone can name the Wii best console yet, for me its been a huge disappointment.

All that but no good games, shame, I thought it was a gaming console?
Im going with N64....nothing beats Goldeneye and Super Smash with a bunch of friends playing. You can have all the 50 player COD4 matches you want, but 4 player Goldeneye still kicks its ass.
